LIGHTBULB ANNOUNCE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE DOC, CHAIN REACTIONS!
Featuring: Patton Oswalt, Takashi Miike, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Stephen King and Karyn Kusama
Lightbulb Film Distribution are delighted to announce that a feature-length documentary about one of the most influential horror films of all time – The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) – will be released in the UK & Ireland on 27th October.
Chain Reactions is an exploration of Tobe Hooper’s cult-classic, featuring never-before-seen outtakes and interviews with Patton Oswalt, Takashi Miike, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Stephen King and Karyn Kusama.
Directed by Alexandre O. Philippe (Lynch/Oz, The Origins of Alien), the doc had its World premiere at Venice Film Festival last year, before screening at a string of International festivals – including BFI (London), Night Visions (Finland), Sitges (Spain) and MIFF (Australia).
Fifty years after Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre shocked the world, this feature-length documentary charts the film’s profound impact and lasting influence on five great artists – Patton Oswalt, Takashi Miike, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Stephen King and Karyn Kusama.
“We are thrilled to be bringing Chain Reactions to audiences in the UK & Ireland. As a huge fan of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, which I first watched on a beaten-up VHS tape, it’s a dream come true to work on this project. Chain Reactions takes a deep dive into one of the most significant independent films of all time and is a must-watch for horror fans!” commented Commercial Director, Matthew Kreuzer.
Chain Reactions will be available on Digital and Blu-ray from 27th Octobe
